King Of Pain

There's a little black spot on the sun today

It's the same old thing as yesterday

There's a black hat caught in a high tree top

There's a flag pole rag and the wind won't stop.



I have stood here before inside the pouring rain

With the world turning circles, running 'round my brain

I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign

But it's my destiny to be the king of pain.



There's a fossil that's trapped in a high cliff wall

(That's my soul up there)

There's a dead salmon frozen in a waterfall

(That's my soul up there)

There's a blue whale beached by the springtide's ebb

(That's my soul up there)

There's a butterfly trapped in a spider's web.



I have stood here before inside the pouring rain

With the world turning circles, running 'round my brain

I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign

But it's my destiny to be the king of pain -



There's a king on a throne with his eyes torn out

There's a blind man looking for a shadow of doubt

There's a rich man sleeping on a golden bed

There's a skeleton choking on a crust of bread.



There's a red fox torn by a huntsman's pack

There's a black winged gull with a broken back.



There's a little black spot on the sun today

It's the same old thing as yesterday.



I have stood here before inside the pouring rain

With the world turning circles, running 'round my brain

I guess I'm always hoping that you'll end this reign

But it's my destiny to be the queen of pain.



Queen of pain!

I'll always be -

Queen of pain!

I'll always be -

Queen of pain!
